Transition
Our transition from California to Kentucky is nearly complete. It is quite a process. We had to provide certain documents to obtain our Kentucky cards and Garry had to prove ownership of the car. But we are now card-carrying members of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, and have a Kentucky license plate. The car has known life only with California plates before this.
As we go through what we need to, I am reminded of two passages from Scripture: Philippians 2:5-11 and Philippians 3:20-21.
Philippians 2:5-11: "Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God. did not consider equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
Philippians 3:20-21: "But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself."
Philippians 2:5-11 makes 3:20-21 possible.
